Safety Instructions
ALCI Safety Device
This hair dryer is provided with an appliance leakage circuit interrupter (ALCI) safety device built into the plug. This device is designed to make the unit inoperable
under some abnormal conditions, such as accidental immersion in water. The ALCI
safety device is equipped with a test button so that its operation can be checked.
This unit should be tested before each use to confirm that the safety device is
operational.
To test:
After plugging in your hair dryer:
1. Press the reset button on the ALCI device.
2. Press the test button. The reset button will pop out. This verifies that the safety
device is operating properly.
3. Press the reset button to reactivate your ALCI safety device.
4. Your hair dryer is now ready for use.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Note: This unit may automatically trip when unplugged. If so, the unit must be reset
after it is plugged in. If the dryer doesn’t reset after following the above testing
procedure, call 800-736-4648.
1. Should the ALCI safety device trip (i.e., reset button pops out) during use, press
the reset button. Should the hair dryer fail to reset, call 800-736-4648. Never
operate this appliance if it has been dropped in water.
2. The dryer is designed to work on ordinary household current only, 125 volts A.C., 60
Hz. It is not intended for commercial use.
3. This appliance is equipped with an automatic thermal limiter, which will cycle off
when overheated and come back on when cooled down. If the unit cycles off,
unplug the cord for several minutes before restarting.
4. This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As a
safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug
does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
If you must use your hair dryer in the bathroom, install a GFCI* now!
Your local electrician can help you decide which type is best for you – a portable unit that plugs into the electrical outlet or a permanent unit installed by
your electrician. The National Electrical Code now requires GFCI’s in bathrooms,
garages, and outdoor outlets of all new homes.
THIS MESSAGE ABOUT
Why do you need a GFCI?
Electricity and water don’t mix. If your hair dryer falls in water while it’s plugged
in, the electric shock can kill you– even if the switch is “off.”

FAULT
CIRCUIT
INTERRUPTERS
A regular fuse or circuit breaker won’t protect you under these circumstances.
A GFCI offers you greater protection.
A GFCI can save your life!
Compared to that, the price is small!
Don’t wait… install one now!
CAN SAVE A LIFE!
*GFCI is a sensitive device that reacts immediately to a small electric current
leak by stopping the electricity flow.

MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
STORAGE
BASIC DRYING TECHNIQUES
■ Keep all intake openings clear of
dust accumulation. See “Cleaning
Instructions” below. No other
maintenance or lubrication is required.
When not in use, unplug the unit. Allow it
to cool, and store out of reach of children
in a safe, dry location.
Never wrap the cord around the appliance, as this will cause the cord to wear
prematurely and break. Handle cord
carefully, and avoid jerking, twisting, or
straining it, especially at plug
connections.
■ Gently towel dry hair to remove
excess water. Avoid rubbing hair with
towel – this creates split ends and
frizziness. Detangle hair with a widetoothed comb.
■ Set dryer to the high setting. Remove
some of the additional moisture from
your hair by briskly blow drying it all
over, using your fingers to "comb"
through hair.
■ When hair is almost dry, lower the
heat and speed setting and begin
to style.
■ Divide hair into manageable sections.
Begin at the nape of your neck and
brush hair, following the movement of
the brush with the dryer. Continue
working your way up your scalp, then
to the sides and the front, drying
small sections at a time.
■ Once you achieve your desired style,
use the Cool Shot button to set the
style with a cool flow of air.
■ If the cord becomes twisted due to use,
periodically straighten it. Store appliance and cord where they will not be
damaged. Do not wrap cord around
dryer.
■ Do not attempt to repair the appliance
yourself. CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

How to Use
Maintenance Instructions
■ The dryer needs minimum maintenance to ensure the best performance
and long life.
■ The air intake grille should be cleaned regularly, since a dirty or clogged grille will impair the efficiency of
the dryer.
■ To clean air intake grille, make sure dryer is turned off and plug is pulled out of outlet. Use soft bristle brush or damp cloth to remove any particles that are lodged in the grille top and bottom.
SETTINGS
Low– Low Heat, Low Speed
High– High Heat, High Speed
COOL SHOT
Once you fully dry your hair and fashion
the style, use the Cool Shot setting to
“set” the style.
FOR STRAIGHT, SMOOTH HAIR
Use a large, round brush or paddle brush
to brush hair from underneath. Pull hair
down until the hair is fully extended and
taut. Run the dryer with concentrator
slowly down the length of the hair several times until dry. Repeat with all sections of hair until it is completely dried.
Lock in the style with the Cool Shot.
FOR CURLY HAIR
Use dryer on a low heat and speed setting and move it quickly about your head.
As you dry your hair, scrunch it with your
favorite styling product or twirl strands of
hair around your fingers to add definition.
When finished drying, lock in the style
with the Cool Shot.
Hair Care Tips
■ Keep the dryer about 8 inches away
from your head to avoid burning scalp
or damaging hair.
■ Always keep the dryer pointed down the hair shaft to smooth the cuticle and create a silky, shiny style.
■ To help prevent heat damage and
add shine, spritz damp hair with
heat protection spray before blow
drying.
■ To create a style with lots of body, apply volumizing mousse to towel-
dried hair. Distribute it evenly from roots to ends, then blow dry as usual. Hair will be soft, shiny and full
of volume.
■ For a super smooth, salon-like blow dry, finish by running a straightening iron over dried hair.
■ For a quick touch-up between
shampoos, mist hair to dampen it,
then style with dryer.
Operating Instructions
VOLTAGE SELECTION:
The travel dryer is perfect
for home or travel abroad. The dryer
converts easily to foreign voltages so
it can accompany you anywhere.
In North America
Your dryer is pre-set to run on North
American voltage (125 volts), so no voltage adjustment is necessary before
using it in Canada, Mexico, or the United
States.
Outside North America
Many foreign countries operate on
220/240 voltage. If you plan to travel to a
country that uses 220/240 volts, you will
need to set the dryer's voltage selector to
250 volts before you can use it there.
Simply insert a dime into the slot on the
dryer's dual voltage selector. Then turn it
so that the indicator lines up with the
desired voltage. The 250 volt setting can
be used in any country that operates at a
voltage greater than 125 volts.
Dual Voltage
Control Switch
125
Hang Loop
250
A plug adapter is necessary when traveling to countries where the 220/240 volt
setting is required. 220/240-volt plugs
are configured differently from country to
country, however, so make sure to buy
the appropriate adapter for the area
you're visiting (square, round, two- or
three-pronged). Adapters are sold at local
appliance and hardware stores at a
modest cost.
NOTE: When operating at 220/240
voltage, the dryer will only operate
on the low setting.
